When Seokjin reached the school, he straight up went towards the staff room which was locked from the inside... "Wonwoo?" He knocked on the door which flew open slightly... The younger alpha male peeped his head out and scanned Seokjin from head to toe... "Oh thank god you came... Please take him with you" he begged before opening the door completely... Seokjin walked into the staff room and noticed that Jeonghan was sleeping on the chair with Wonwoo's coat wrapped around his body and Yoongi was caressing other omega's hair while shedding silent tears...

"Yo-Seokjin..." The original omega called the name to gain the attention of the younger male... Which certainly happened as Yoongi immediately stood up and ran towards the alpha (by the body)... "He was crying due to pain... Does this 'heat' thing hurt that bad?" Yoongi asked with an adorable pout making Jin coo at him... "Let's go home... okay?" the older male held his husband's wrist who without any objection followed but stopped in front of Wonwoo... "I am warning you... stay away from him" Yoongi glared, making Wonwoo gulp in fear and nod his head repetitively...

Finally, they walked out of the school and Jin sat behind the wheel of his car, worry etched on his face, as he glanced at his husband... who is slouched in the passenger seat, looking visibly uncomfortable... "Yoongi, are you okay? You look really pale" the older male asked while focusing on the road... Yoongi shook his head... "No, my stomach hurts and I feel cold... I am not okay" his eyes become watery... Jin reached over and placed a comforting hand on Yoongi's forehead, his touch was gentle and warm...

"Your forehead is burning up, Yoongi... You've got a fever..." he stated in an utmost worry... The younger male winced in pain, clutching his stomach... "Why... you go through this shit every month?" Jin nodded "I don't get the fever though... this is new" the older male started the car, and they drove through the rain-soaked streets, the sound of raindrops against the car's roof providing a calming backdrop...

As they reached home, Jin helped Yoongi out of the car and led him inside their cozy apartment... Yoongi sank into the couch, still grimacing from the pain... The orginal omega disappeared into the kitchen and returned with a warm bowl of his remedy soup and a glass of water...

"Here, try to eat a little... It might make you feel better..." even if SeokJin planned that he will torture Yoongi by not helping him during his heat... he couldn't bring himself to do so... even a single tear in the younger's eyes makes his heart clench... Yoongi took a few sips of the soup, the warmth soothing his aching stomach... He gazed at Jin with gratitude in his eyes...

"Thank you..." just two simple words and Jin was on cloud nine... Min fucking Yoongi said 'thank you' to him... is this a dream? Oh god... he can't believe his ears... "your welcome... you should take rest now" the younger male nodded and tried to stand up but a sharp pain made him scream out loudly... "Oh fuck" Jin was quick to hold Yoongi by his shoulder... "careful... let me help" the younger male didn't object or said anything... he let SeokJin do whatever he wanted...

In the quiet, dimly lit bedroom, Yoongi lay wrapped in a cocoon of blankets, his brow glistening with sweat... His skin was flushed, and his breathing was labored... A heavy fever due to pre-heat had taken hold of him, leaving him weak and vulnerable... He has never experienced something like this before...

Seokjin sat by his side, concern etched on his face... Yes, he is mad at Yoongi for many reasons but he can't see the younger male in pain... This condition of his alpha is concerning to him because he never got fever during the heat... Seokjin placed a cool, damp cloth on Yoongi's forehead, hoping to alleviate some of the fever's heat... "You will be okay" Seokjin whispered softly, his voice filled with reassurance...

Yoongi looked at the older male with eyes filled with tears, his voice raspy from the fever. "I feel awful, Jinnie..." This was the first time in the past few months that Yoongi has called him with a nickname that makes an older male's heart race like crazy... Seokjin leaned down to press a gentle kiss to Yoongi's forehead. "I know... But I am here with you, and we will get through this together..."

He reached for a glass of water and helped Yoongi take small sips to keep him hydrated... The room was filled with the soothing sound of rain tapping against the windowpane, a comforting backdrop to their shared moment... The younger male groaned in pain when his stomach hurted badly... "How long will this last?" He asked in a voice barely above whisper... "You are still in pre-heat... Your heat will start after 2 days and last till 4... So basically, a week" Yoongi started crying listening to Seokjin's words which made the older male to lean forward and wrap his arms around the alpha...

"I am sorry" SeokJin's eyes grew wide at the sudden apology... "why?" He asked, not pulling away from the hug... "You go through this pain every month and I don't even pay the slightest attention... I am such a dick... I am so sorry" Yoongi started crying louder than before... is it a pain or guilt for not being there for his husband in his hard times even after making a promise to be there for him... Yoongi doesn't know... but this shit hurts really bad... After a while, he fell asleep...

Seokjin continued to care for Yoongi throughout the night, monitoring his temperature, and administering fever-reducing medication as prescribed by the doctor... He adjusted the blankets and made sure Yoongi was as comfortable as possible...

As dawn broke, Yoongi's fever began to subside, and he drifted into a peaceful sleep, his breathing becoming more steady... Seokjin watched over him, his hand gently resting on Yoongi's, a symbol of their unwavering bond... No matter how much they deny the love they have for one another, they can never stop loving each other... but what they didn't know was that the worst is yet to happen when Yoongi will go in complete heat...
